Stadt Flensburg · Government · Germany
Medium risk. 3 critical or high findings in Email security, Security headers and 1 other check.
The website flensburg-mitmachen.de is the official online citizen participation platform for the city of Flensburg, Germany. It leverages the open source CONSUL platform, customized by demokratie.today, to provide residents with tools to engage in local projects, discussions, surveys, and events. The platform serves as a transparent and accessible channel for public involvement in municipal decision-making processes. The target audience is primarily the residents and stakeholders of Flensburg interested in civic engagement and local governance. Technically, the site is built on Ruby on Rails using the CONSUL framework, enhanced with CKEditor 5 for content editing and Klaro for cookie consent management. The site demonstrates good mobile responsiveness, accessibility, and SEO practices. It uses HTTPS with proper CSRF protections but could improve by adding more security headers and publishing a formal security policy. From a security perspective, the platform shows a solid posture with encrypted connections, consent mechanisms, and no visible vulnerabilities or tracking beyond consent management. However, it lacks explicit incident response contacts and vulnerability disclosure information, which are recommended for transparency and security maturity. Overall, the site is trustworthy, professionally maintained, and aligned with GDPR compliance. The domain WHOIS data is limited but consistent with an official municipal platform. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing security and incident response policies, and possibly integrating analytics with privacy safeguards to better understand user engagement while maintaining compliance.
Scanned
NIS2 Art. 21(2)
This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.
GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.
3 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.
SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.
Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing
What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately
Security headers are instructions your web server sends to every visitor’s browser. Missing ones leave visitors more exposed to attacks such as clickjacking and injected scripts.
Forces HTTPS connections
What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"
TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.
Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1
What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.
The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Findings that cap the score at 49
Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.
Partial scans
When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Automated reading of the public site. Ratings are indicative.
Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
